We show that on smooth minimal surfaces of general type, the K\"ahler-Ricci flow starting at any initial K\"ahler metric converges in the Gromov-Hausdorff sense to a K\"ahler-Einstein orbifold surface. In particular, the diameter of the…

We establish a general result ensuring a $C^1$ a priori bound for smooth curves of Hermitian metrics. As a main application, we obtain a new regularity result for Hermitian curvature flows, and in particular for the second Chern-Ricci flow.

Given a completely arbitrary surface, whether or not it has bounded curvature, or even whether or not it is complete, there exists an instantaneously complete Ricci flow evolution of that surface that exists for a specific amount of time…

Ricci flow on two dimensional surfaces is far simpler than in the higher dimensional cases. This presents an opportunity to obtain much more detailed and comprehensive results. We review the basic facts about this flow, including the…

In this work, we first establish short time existence and Shi's type estimate of second Ricci flow on complete noncompact Hermitian manifolds. As an application, we use the second Ricci flow to discuss the existence of Kaehler-Einstein…

The geometric evolution equations provide new ways to address a variety of non-linear problems in Riemannian geometry, and, at the same time, they enjoy numerous physical applications, most notably within the renormalization group analysis…

In this paper, we study the $t$-Gauduchon Ricci-flat condition under the Chern-Ricci flow. In this setting, we provide examples of Chern-Ricci flow on compact non-K\"ahler Calabi-Yau manifolds which do not preserve the $t$-Gauduchon…

We establish uniform diameter estimates and volume non-collapsing estimates for the Chern-Ricci flow on smooth Hermitian minimal models of general type, assuming the initial metric is K\"ahler in a neighborhood of the null locus of the…

We study the formation of finite time singularities of the Kahler-Ricci flow in relation to high codimensional birational surgery in algebraic geometry. We show that the Kahler-Ricci flow on an n-dimensionl Kahler manifold contracts a…

In this paper, we study the collpasing K\"{a}hler-Ricci flow on Hirzebruch surfaces, which develops finite time singularities. We show that any tangent flow based at a point in the singular time slice is the K\"{a}hler-Ricci flow associated…

In this paper we study a generalization of the Kahler-Ricci flow, in which the Ricci form is twisted by a closed, non-negative (1,1)-form. We show that when a twisted Kahler-Einstein metric exists, then this twisted flow converges…

We introduce a new geometric flow of Hermitian metrics which evolves an initial metric along the second derivative of the Chern scalar curvature. The flow depends on the choice of a background metric, it always reduces to a scalar equation…
